I am familiar with Authority. By whose Authority do you interpret Scripture? If if is by your own reading and interpretation, how can you state with Authority that your interpretation surpasses or trumps mine which is held by 1 billion Roman Catholics?

I defer to the interpretation revealed through the Holy Spirit and passed through millenia to the Early Church Fathers and onwards. You may read into it whatever you wish. And, that leads to 30,000 denominations and growing. If you doubt it, watch the Journey Home on EWTN any Monday evening and discover how minuscule the differences are between denominations.

I can't find that in my Bible.
